Matthew, this is exactly my point: if you trust someone to provide the real name (but (can|elect) not to check it), then there is no real need to ask for a real name. I prefer to be honest also -- and this forced me to withdraw. But there is only one hggdh, and my GPG key is stored by LP, and I signed the CoC. Personally I consider signing the CoC much more important to the Ubuntu community than providing a (real or otherwise) name. And I have not started yesterday helping Ubuntu. I have a history behind me, although not as long as a lot of other people here. This should also be enough for Canonical to trust me. No hard feelings anyway. ..hggdh..
